Abbaye Belgian Ale Yeast - Lallemand

Abbaye is a Belgian ale yeast known for its abitlity to ferment Belgian style beers that can range from low to high alcohol levels. Abbaye produces spicy and fruity flavors, making it the perfect dry yeast to make beers of the Trappist variety, such as Dubbel, Tripel and Quad. When fermenting at higher temperatures, Abbaye will impart tropical, spicy and banana flavors and aromas. When fermenting at lower temperatures, the flavors and aromas become that of darker fruits, such as raisin, date and fig.

I used to use T-58 for my Golden Strong and Tripel, but switched to Abbaye and love the results. Average start time of fermentation, attenuates well (FG 1.007 on the Strong), and flocs out OK as you'd expect from a Belgian strain. Great flavor profile that is not as spicy as the T-58. ***I would like to note that the three packets I ordered were expired when I received them as another review mentioned. I took photos and sent an email to MoreBeer customer support. They asked if I wanted a refund or replacement. I went with the replacement and new yeast showed up on my doorstep in no time. Great customer service.Thanks!***

The yeast was expired when I received it. The manufacturers website says not to use if the product is past its expiration date. I did receive a refund from MoreBeer. Don't know why they would send a product out to a customers when it is expired.
